Why did user-level security disappear in 2007?

Roger Carlson

Accdb is a different version of Jet called the Access Database Engine that
is specific to Office. It supports some features (like multi-value fields)
that mdb does not. It also does not support some features (like security)
that mdb does. I suppose it *could* support security, but the Access Team
made a deliberate decision to leave it out.

Doesn't both MDB and ACCDB use Jet so shouldn't they both support it?

If you use the mdb format, then you most certainly can use ULS with access
2007.

It is only when you use the accDB format that you using a "new" version of
the jet engine (called ACE), and in that case, you don't have ULS.....


So, ULS still can be used in a2007, you just have to stick to the mdb format
